To all whom it may concern: w i L Be it known that FERDINAND Rosrnivzr,a citizen of the Republic of France, residing at Manila, in the Provinceof Luzon, Philippine Islands, have invented certainnew and usefulImprovements in Non-RefillableBot tles, of which the following isaspecification, reference being hadtherein to the accompanying drawing.v i I This inventionrelates to anon-refillable bottle and has for itsprincipal object the production ofa construction which consists of aplurality of parts which maybe easily inserted into the neckof a bottleadapted to receive the same and will eflicientlysprevent the bottle frombeing refilled;

Another object of this invention is in the production of a valve oasingwhich is adapt ed to receive a ball which ball will" allow the contentsof the bottle to flow out of the same when the same is tilted, but willprevent fluid from being inserted into the bottle.

Another object of this invention is the pro duction of a stopperprovided with a conical shaped central bore which is adapted to supportthe above-mentioned valve casing.

A still further object of this invention is the production of a stopperwhich may be readily inserted into the bottle, said stopper beingprovided with dogs which will engage sockets provided within the neck ofthe ball so asto prevent the stopper from being moved unless the neck ofthe bottle is broken.

With these and other objects in view, this invention consists of certainnovel combinations, constructions and arrangements of parts as will behereinafter fully described and claimed.

In the drawing Figure 1 is a fragmentary side elevation of the bottle,showing the neck thereof in section with the non-refillable partsinserted therein.

Fig. 2 is a section taken on the line 22, looking downwardly showing aportion of the body-portion thereof broken away.

Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the valve casing and the pipe connectedthereto.

Fig. 4 is a section taken on the line 44 of Fig. 3.

Fig. 5 is a section taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3.

By referring to the drawing-by numerals,

it will be seen that 1 designates the bottle atented 13,1918.

which is provided with the neck 2. This neck 2 is provided withthecollar 3 which is adaptedto receivean ordinary stopper. The neck 2 isprovidedwith the sockets 4:, the purpose of which will be'hereinafterfully described. By referring to Fig. 1,it :will be seen that there isprovided within the neck 2 the supporting stopper 5, which stopper 5 isprovided with a central longitudinal conical.- bore 6, which bore 6 islarger at its upperend thanat its lower end. This stopper 5-is alsoprovided with a plurality of transverse slots 7 which slots 7 areadapted to: receive the dogs .8 which are normally held out of the slots7 by means of the springs 9. By referring again, especially to Fig. 1,itwill be seen that these springs 9 "which are situated in the slots 7are adapted to force the dogs 8 into the sockets 4. From thisconstruction, it will beseen that when the stopper 5 is inserted withinthe neck of the bottle, the dogs 8 will be forced into the sockets 4.-by means of the springs 9, thereby making it impossible to remove thestopper 5 from the neck of the bottle, unless said neck is broken.

The conical bore 6 is adapted to receive the conical shaped Valve casing10. This valve casing 10 is provided at its upper end with asubstantially spherical or dome shaped head or top 11 and tapers down atits lower end. Adjacent the lower end of the valve casing 10, there isprovided the annular groove 12. Between the groove 12 and the lower endof the valve casing 10, there is provided aplurality of oval-shaped0penings 13. Adjacent the spherical shaped head 11, thereis provided theoutlet pipe 14.

The valve casing 10 is adapted to carry the ball 15 which will act as avalve within said valve casing 10. This valve casing 10 is placed withinthe conical bore 6 so that the same will be supported by the stopper 5in order. to hold the same either in a ring or solder 16 whichisprovided within the annular channel 12from which it will be imp0ssibleto remove the valve casing 10 from the supporting stopper 5.

When the elements are assembledas shown in Fig. 1, it will be seen thatby tilting the bottle, the contents will enter the openings 13 and flowthrough the valve casing 10 since the valve ball 15 will be in sphericalhead 11 and will therefore allow the liquid to flow through the outletpipe 14. Whenthe bottle is in a vertical position, it will be seen thebottle so that the dogs 8 will be sprung into thesockets, that it willbe impossible to remove these non-refillable parts without breaking theneck of the bottle. It will also be seen that a manufacturer using thisdovice'might use the non-refillable parts over again, that is, he mayremove the same by destroying the bottle and could insert thesenon-refillable elements within a light constructed bottle. Thisinvention is adapted to be constructed of glass with the exception ofthe springs 9 and of course, solder 16, but I do not wish to limitmyself to any specific Copies of this patent my be obtained for materialbut only to the construction set forth in the pending claim.

What is claimed is:

I In a device of the class described, the combination with a bottleprovided with a neck, of a supporting stopper inserted in said neck,means for holding said stopper in said neck, said stopper provided witha vertical, conical-shaped bore, a conical-shaped valve casing having aclosed dome-shaped top in said eonicaleshaped bore of said stopper, saidvalve casing provided with a closed bottom and with an annular groovenear the lower end thereof, said casing provided with a plurality ofoval-shaped openings formed in its side above the bottom and below theannular groove, a curved outlet pipe integral with the side of saidcasing conti ous to the dome-shaped top, a solder in said annular grooveand bearing against the bottom face of said stopper, and a ball-valve insaid casing.

'In'testimony whereof I hereunto allix my signature.
